Wednesday night was the annual Nocturne Rive Droite in Paris, an evening of vernissages at the galleries located in the Carré d’or (between l’avenue Matignon, le Faubourg Saint Honoré, la rue de Miromesnil and la rue de Penthièvre).
Later in the week we spotted a couple of jewels for either side of your bed and a truly gorgeous pair of Scandinavian chairs.
And lastly we would like to share with you an exhibition in LA by one of our friends.
Have a great Weekend!

Wednesday night with the annual Nocturne Rive Droite, an evening of vernissages at the galleries located in the Carré d’or (between l’avenue Matignon, le Faubourg Saint Honoré, la rue de Miromesnil and la rue de Penthièvre). 

Piero Fornasetti designed this circular brass mirror, which is suspended by a velvet ribbon, circa 1945

This desk lamp by Emile Guillot is so chic! It’s nickel-plated chrome, which gives it more of the look of silver vs. chrome. It was designed in the 1920s/30s. The two glass shelves pivot. 

H : 34 cm, base 20 x 40 cm.

This sublime pair of Monsieur et Madame chairs in the following three photos was designed by Scandinavian duo Madsen and Schubel for the American market in the 1950s.
This was when Finn Juhl and Hans Wegner were becoming quite well known in the States and it was clear that there was a market for Scandinavian design.
Only a small production sold for one shop in NY.
Dimensions: Width: 67 cm, Depth 68 cm, Height of Madame chair 82 cm, Height of Monsieur chair 98 cm. 
The back of the Madame chair is lower to accommodate for those elaborate 1950s hairdos!
Price for the pair: 5,720 Euros

The super elegant armrest wraps around the back of the chair.

This is the Madams Chair with the lower back.

This is the Monsieur Chair with a higher back. (Sorry about the photo… if you are interested we will send better photos to you.)
